Ever noticed a surge in your sex drive right around the middle of your menstrual cycle? You're not imagining it—it's likely your body's clever way of signaling peak fertility. Around day 14 of a typical 28-day cycle, ovulation kicks in, driven by rising estrogen levels that boost confidence, mood, and physical sensitivity.
